Smothered Mushrooms and Kale

2 T. olive oil

2 T. butter

4 cloves garlic, chopped

10 oz. mushrooms, cleaned and halved

1 bunch of kale, stems removed and chopped

salt and pepper

Fresh lemon juice (optional)

Heat a medium sized skillet over medium high heat. Add the oil and butter.

When the butter is melted add the mushrooms. Using a lid that is too small for the pan, 'smother' the mushrooms bu pressing the lid down onto the mushrooms. Cook 7-8 minutes stirring once.

Pile the kale into the skillet. Turn it with tongs to combine the kale with the mushrooms.

'Smother' with the lid for another few minutes until the greens are cooked.

Season with salt and pepper.

If you would prefer, squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice to serve.
